Jam Blossoms

Melt-in-your-mouth, buttery shortbread cookies are topped with your favorite
Jamnation flavor for cookies that are both delicious and beautiful. Unlike traditional thumbprint cookies, the
jam doesn’t get baked so it maintains our jams’ perfect luscious consistencies. We recommend Apricot Up in the Moment,
To Peach His Own, Razzle Bazzle, Rose to the Grindstone or make it your own!

Yield: 25 cookies
Active Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

½ cup confectioners' sugar

½ cup room-temperature butter

¼ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon almond extract

1 cup unbleached all purpose flour

½ cup
Jamnation

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment.

Drop the dough in 1" balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 1/2" between them; a teaspoon cookie scoop
works well here.

Using the flat bottom of a glass or measuring cup, flatten the balls gently, to about 1/4" thick. Tip: put a damp cloth
over the glass so that the dough doesn’t stick.

Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, till their edges are just starting to brown.

Remove the cookies from the oven, and working quickly, firmly press straight down into their centers, to make a shallow
indentation about 1 1/4" across. Tip: a flat bottle lid or other round, flat object about 1 1/4" in diameter or the
round top of a pestle works great!

Dollop 1 level measuring teaspoon of
Jamnation into the center of each cookie, spreading it to the edges of the indentation, if necessary.
